Can I decrease the number of schools to save some money?? If so, how many and which ones? 🙂🙂🙂

VCU, UMD, Buffalo, Boston, Temple, Pittsburgh, NYU, New Jersey, Boston, Tufts.
 
11 schools isn't a guarantee, I would keep as many as possible.. good luck.
 
You already payed aadsas right? I don't think you can reduce the number of schools. You can just withdraw your apps so you don't have to pay the processing fees for each school.
 
dude, you freaking killed it. Great job and good luck with the cycle. Which version of the test did you get?
 
I would take out New Jersey, they take less out of staters. Other than that, 10 schools is a good number for your stats.
 
There are only 10 schools up there, and i would eliminate NJ as the above guy said cuz they are a state school and accept less out of staters. Also if you need to i would eliminate one of the bostons to make only 9 schools (its up there twice). I am not sure what other schools are on yor list so i cant coment further but i would keep the rest unless you really need to save the money. You never know when it comes to these interviews and people with suerior stats often times dont get accpeted and vice versa. Risky business applying to a only a few schools.
 
Yea I guess 10 is a good number to keep. Thanks for the advice guys 🙂
